Dashboards for chiefs of staff
The Monday exec pack, with a receipt behind every number. When someone asks where a number came from, the answer is one click away.
Every page keeps its owner and its sheet · Sample data
Chiefs of staff pull revenue, hiring, cash, and goals from different owners every week, and the numbers change shape every time. A definitions page and receipts keep them steady.
Spend Monday on decisions, not on rebuilding the pack.

Questions
Something else? Ask us
Can it pull from several sheets?
The pilot covers one spreadsheet. If your pack pulls from several, tell us on the call.
What happens when a definition changes mid-quarter?
We record the change with its date and its effect, and each number says which version of the definition it uses.
Do you replace our BI tool?
No. Every Number is for teams that report from spreadsheets without a data team. If you have a BI team, you may not need us.
Is our data safe with you?
Your spreadsheet is used only to build your dashboard and seen by one person. The AI only sees column names and your goal, never the rows. We delete our copy 30 days after the pilot.
What does it cost?
The pilot is $99 once, credited to your first month at launch. After launch, Solo is $29 a month and Team is $99 a month for up to 5 people.
